Overview

MasQi, The Energy House is a boutique, adults‑only yoga and meditation retreat set in a beautifully restored 19th‑century farmhouse in the heart of the Sierra de Mariola Natural Park. Surrounded by forest, open countryside and mountain air, the setting feels wonderfully removed from everyday life – so it’s ideal if you’re looking to escape and switch off.

Days here unfold with daily yoga and meditation in the retreat’s striking dome, restorative walks through the park, and moments of stillness by the outdoor pool or in the gardens.

MasQi’s intimate scale and gentle rhythm make it especially appealing for solo travellers looking for space, reflection and connection. With bio‑gourmet cuisine rooted in macrobiotic principles and holistic therapies drawn from Ayurveda, Traditional Chinese Medicine and energy work, this is a place for deep renewal and mindful living.

The retreat will be closed from 19 to 25 December 2026.

What’s on the menu

Food is a key part of a stay at MasQi, guided by the principles of a macrobiotic diet. The focus isn’t on restriction, but education – inspiring guests to eat well, care for themselves long after they return home, and discover new ingredients along the way.

Ingredients are organic and of the highest quality, with vegetables sourced from trusted organic growers in the Valencia region. The cuisine is largely plant-based, with occasional additions of wild fish, carefully selected from the Alicante fish market.

From time to time, MasQi hosts themed dining experiences – from blindfold dinners to esoteric evenings or menus inspired by different countries and cultures.

Breakfast

Breakfast follows the principles of a macrobiotic diet, designed to be easy to digest while providing steady energy for the day ahead. Miso soup is a daily staple, alongside a nourishing selection of wholegrains and cereals. Coffee is available.

Plate of salad leaves and vegetables next to radishes

Lunch

A balanced three-course menu with dessert, designed to nourish without weighing you down. Expect seasonal vegetables, wholegrains and plant-based proteins like tofu, tempeh, seitan and legumes.

Plate of spaghetti in a creamy herby sauce

Dinner

A relaxed candlelit affair. Dishes are predominantly plant-based, with protein largely drawn from vegetables, legumes and grains, while occasional fish features for added variety.

Location

MasQi sits deep in the Mariola mountain range within the protected Sierra de Mariola Natural Park, between Alicante and Valencia. Despite its sense of escape, MasQi remains easy to reach. Alicante Airport is a 60-minute drive away.

Quiet retreat hotel set in a peaceful wooded area. Excellent vegan/vegetarian dishes I counted around 42 different ones in a 7 day stay. Wonderful attentive staff.

One of the best yoga and wellness retreats I have visited, especially, in its price range. A small intimate boutique-y place up in the mountains was a welcome change of scenery from the beach experience in Costa Blanca. The place is "living and breathing" yoga and you sense this from the moment you arrive. Building/ambiance: beautiful historic space in a rustic chic style with art deco touches. I meant to ask more about the history of the property but did not have a chance Activities and treatments: you get about 3 hours of quality yoga and meditation per day which is incredible for the price of the stay compared to other retreats. The teachers are authentic and adopt to guests of various levels (I am a trainer yoga teacher myself and found the sessions very valuable). The massages were of high quality (I am a someone who gets regular osteo and physio treatments back at home). Food: based on the macrobiotic diet which I had studied thoroughly in the past. I find it very complimentary to the yoga practices and it can have a nice detoxing effect. But do keep in mind that the macrobiotic diet is heavily skewed towards grains, legumes and starches. Low on animal protein (only fish). Everything taste incredible and portions are very generous (I actually ended up asking for smaller portions). Service: people are incredibly attentive. The place feels very personal and homey. Overall: it is called Energy House for a reason. You feel the vibe (the right feng shui :-)) from the moment you arrive!

I had a truly wonderful week at MasQi and have returned home feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. Everyone was so friendly, the macrobiotic food was amazing, as were all the treatments I received. The place itself and the surrounding area are magical. Thanks for booking the escape for me!
